It's more a factor of you not having to expend 1000 calories to eat 1050 calories. We're much more efficient in our food production. Carbs and fats still taste better than veggies and whole grains though. My comment was more directed at the idea of assigning blame. At the end of the day, tax sticks or not, we all make our own choices about food.

Have to dig for it, but just this past week (or maybe last week or so), a report came out that basically had gathered the evidence that the food industry has been using the same tactics as the tobacco industry to portect and grow its market and profits - ranging from controlling research and media reports to adding addictives to food, apart from the usual lobbying.

Okay sure, but I'm thinking that 99.9% of us are not going to want to be producing our own food. If I get to choose between some shenanigans by Big Ag and me subsistence farming, I'm going to take shenanigans. Not to mention probably suffering from scurvy living in Alberta through the winter (6) months.
